Hello guru!
I have a question: try/catch handles only throw command or all exceptions?

I write this code:
int main()
{
   printf("start\n");
   try
   {
      int a = 0;
      int b = 0 / a;
   }
   catch(...)
   {
      printf("error\n");
   }
   printf("end\n");
   return(0);
}


Then, my program crash at line with "b=0/a".
With Ubuntu and U++ (debug mode and release mode)
and also with Windows Xp and Microsoft Visual Studio!!!
(Visual studio show a pop-up, to inform about exception).

WHY???

But, if I insert a "throw", then it jump correctly to catch(...).
I must verify all possible errors and insert my "throw"??? I don't belive!!!
Maybe I must active some flag?

On Windows Xp, U++ dev 10, it displays the correct functionality and there where no crashes. But if I try to debug it in a line-by-line mode, once it hits the exception, the cursor no longer moves when I press F10. Is step-over/step-through not supported after an exception?

C++ and system exception are not the same thing.

Well, when exception occurs, it stops at instruction that caused exception. F10 tries to perform it again - this is standard behaviour with all debugers I know...

If you want to skip it (which most likely will break the program logic anyway), you need to change the IP.

In theory (IMHO) the debugger should step to catch block... I don't know very well GDB, but the Borland debugger had options to catch exceptions OR to leave the handling to the debugged program.
